Ernie Schenone, Jr. 5 June 2003 Schenone Specialty Foods - 2 - We 2 -We are also in receipt of your 31 May 2003 fax. Most of your questions are addressed in our 30 May 2003 letter. However, you also state that you received several telephone calls from a gentleman named "Patel"who works for this department. I am not aware of anyone in this agency by that name. I do understand that Jatin Khandwala of this office's stormwater unit has contacted you regarding stormwater compliance at your existing facility. Tim O'Brien and I are the staffresponsible for regulating the discharge of wastewater to land in San Joaquin County, and we will continue to work with you on permitting the new facility. We understand that you are currently constructing your plumbing system. As stated in our 5 May 2003 letter to you, "it is unknown at this time whether the proposed discharge of Chocoholic wastewater directly to a septic tank, without any pretreatment,will be protective of water quality." To reiterate staff's discussions with you today, it is necessary to complete the RWD to determine whether you will E need to implement other methods of treatment or disposal of the wastewater to prevent degradation of -the underlying groundwater. Please-recall that you may not discharge.any industrial/process wastewater until the Regional Board has either issued WDRs or a waiver of WDRs. In order to expedite the process, we suggest that you submit a complete RWD, as described in our 30 May 2003 letter, as soon as possible. If you have any questions, you may contact Tim O'Brien at (916) 255-3116 or me at (916) 255-3135.
